White Orca

White Orcas are rare and hard to find, but last year, one white orca was found with a pod in Alaska and photographed. Here's a photo, and to read more, go to the link on the side bar.

My Adopted Orca

I just adopted an Orca named Ruffles from the Orca Adoption Program.

Here's a brief description of Ruffles and a photo.

"Ruffles is the oldest male in the Southern Resident Community.

The trailing edge of his 6 ft. dorsal fin is very wavy, which is how he got his name. Ruffles is one of the orcas from the movie "Free Willy." He's from JPod and is believed to have been born in 1951.

Cross Stitch Orca

One of my favorite hobbies is cross stitching, and years ago, I found a pattern of an orca and here it is.

Orca Puzzles

I love working puzzles, and my son and I recently completed this beautiful orca puzzle.

I love Orcas!

I have been crazy about Orca whales for as long as I can remember. I have been lucky enough to visit Sea World in San Antonio, TX a few times, and the highlight for me was always visiting the orca "shamu" shows. I think they are one of God's true beauties of the sea. One of my favorite movies is of course Free Willy, and I love in the movie that Willy was released back into the wild. My dream is to one day take a vacation somewhere that I can see orcas in the wild. When I see an orca swimming in the sea, I find peace within my heart as I watch them move so graceful doing what orcas do.
